    Twitter?

    Twitter, MySpace, Facebook, texting, blogs, AIM, Yahoo Messenger - not interested in any of them! Like watching paint dry. I have no desire to display the details of my personal life for the entire WWW to view. The pictures above remind me of this: Texting bus drivers

    FL listed in "Best of" list in Art of Manliness

    I couldn't care less. I never said it was an Academy Award, just an FYI. What's your problem, bub?

    Don't read it then.

    FL listed in "Best of" list in Art of Manliness

    I searched and didn't see this mentioned, so if somebody beat me to it, my apologies. FL made the list of "Best of" in an article on their website and newsletter titled A Guide to the Best Men’s Style, Grooming, And Etiquette Information on the Web.

    I love art deco, but...

    I have doubts about some of these posters being genuine antiques. The one I saw in the antique store said "1968" on the tag. An employee told me the poster I was looking at wasn't from 1968, but was a reproduction. So that means the originals were produced in 1968? And there are...

    Yeah, but what do you really think about it?

    I love art deco, but...

    Yeah, say what? Not an art deco fan, I take it. That's ok, to each his own. I'm more curious as to how they justify the high price tag. Beautiful as it is, $500 is nonsense for a poster.

    The one that got away.

    I thought there was a thread in here somewhere on vintage items that we tried but failed to obtain, but darned if I can find it. Mods feel free to move the post. This was on Craigslist and I missed it by about a couple hours. It was on the high end of my price range, but I didn't care, it...

    Yeah, I remember one that said "Hopes fulfilled and a good marriage." 30 years later, I'm still waiting... :(

    I love art deco, but...

    $500 smackers for a poster?!! What makes this thing worth that much?! It's a silk screen, so what?! Is it printed on currency?! FWIW, I saw this same poster in an antique mall in Seattle, framed, with a price tag of $900! That's how I found it online, I googled it thinking that it's just a...

    Is the vintage crowd the curmudgeon crowd?

    In answer to the topic question, the answer is not necessarily, curmudgeons are found in every group. The group of people I "hang" with are all middle-age, as I am. We don't "party into the night", especially when we have our fill of food and a few alcoholic beverages. There's no specific...

    FAVORITE WILD ANIMAL

    Yup. Only other one in these waters is the smaller red octopus. Occasionally see a stuby squid, but not very often.

    FAVORITE WILD ANIMAL

    Ditto the octopus! As an avid scuba diver, I see them from time to time in Puget Sound. Also the Wolf Eel: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2414279596854902333

    Steampunk, Dieselpunk, etc.

    I want one of these, except maybe in art deco style:

    Show us your Thrift and/or yard sale finds

    Art Deco chest of drawers I'm assuming Craigslist finds fall into this thread. Been looking for one of these, finally found one in good shape and reasonable price. Only has some minor scratches on it. The mirror is gold colored, was that common in those days? More for decor than...

    New Star Trek

    Rock n Roll heaven... Well, Scotty and Bones are there. Kinda reminds me of the "Rock n Roll Assassins" morph: Back to our program, pardon the interuption..

    "Fuzzy" fedora?

    Interesting. So it was actually "period correct".

    New Star Trek

    I always got the impression that they took Spock's character and split him between Worf and Data. I never really cared for TNG, having grown up watching the original series on a b&w vacuum tube TV, but I did like Marina Sirtis, she was a babe! I think my thoughts would scare the bejeezuz out...
